McGuire on Wrestling - John Cena Turns Heel, Shocks The World

WWE's Elimination Chamber took place in Toronto this year, and once again, the Six witnessed some major moments... Arguably, one of the biggest creative moments of the last 20 years.

Aligning himself with The Rock, John Cena, on his retirement year, made a major shift and attacked the WWE Champion, Cody Rhodes.

This now sets up their match which will Main Event WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.

This week, join Mike McGuire with several other guests including fellow Celebrate Wrestling Hosts and Contributors, Mitch Hontzias, Joe Aguinaldo and Stefan Bennett for conversation around the impact of the Cena turn, as well as the implications coming out of the show as a whole.

Also, The Wrestling Observer's Dave Meltzer offers his thoughts on the turn, and where it sits in biggest moments in wrestling storyline history.  Dave and Mike also talk about AEW's production issues vs. match quality, and chat a little about the upcoming Queen of the Ring film.

Then, it's all about you, as in this podcast exclusive, we go through all YOUR feedback on Elimination Chamber.
